Tag Flow Branches and use Run Recipes to run smoke or regression coverage.
Smoke coverage is a short path that proves the core journey still works. Regression coverage runs the longer paths. In DoesQA, both can live in one Flow: share the early steps, split with a Flow Branch, then mark each path with Tag Test.
Use the Flow Builder for this walkthrough.
A Flow with a journey you can split into a short path and a longer path
Tag names you will reuse in recipes, such as smoke and regression
Start with Open. Add any shared steps both packs need, such as login.
On the short path, add Tag Test from Utilities.
Choose or create the smoke tag. Finish the path with the checks that prove the core journey.
On the longer path, add another Tag Test with the regression tag. Continue with the extra steps that pack should own.
Each tagged path becomes a Test Case. A path can carry more than one tag if you place more than one Tag Test on it.
Pro tip: Manual Run Mode on Tag Test only affects the play button in the Flow Builder. Ignore Test Case skips that path on a manual run. Recipe, Schedule, and CI Runs always use your recipe filters instead.

Go to Settings → Run Recipes.
Include tags mean all selected tags must be present. If you set include tags, paths with no matching Tag Test are left out. So a smoke path tagged only smoke does not run in a regression recipe unless that path also has the regression tag.
